The 2017 pact

[davemc1]

My name is dave and I am a serial club changer. But not in 2017. I cant help thinking the chopping and changing of clubs isnt helping. I reckon I have the tools to get me to 14, so im gonna give the clubs I have a real go at proving it.

If it wasnt for the fact I have a gap to fill in the wedges dept then the plan would be not to buy any club.

This comes as im eyeing the m2 driver and have a serious crush on the callaway apex irons... so its not gonna be easy



Anyone with me?

 

[Dasit]

Not going to buy new clubs until I have taken 10 shots off my handicap

 

[Lord Tyrion]

Hell no. How do you expect me to improve without new clubs? Weird 😁

 

[snell]

You telling me you AIN'T buying a chipper?!?!?!

 

[davemc1]

10? Now that is commitment! 4 looks like a cop out on my behalf :rofl:

But you could get to 10 or 12 if you bought the Apex's. C'mon, you know you need them. If you get them now you'll have time to bed them in before the season starts!!

 

[bluewolf]

Jeez Dave. Who am I going to sell stuff to if you stop buying?

Anyway, I have a different plan. I'm finally going to start using the "Forum ignore" feature. So, if anyone comments on a post of mine and I don't answer it, I'm not being rude, I just think your an obnoxious knob.....

You don't need an M2 either. You need a 917D2 with the stiff Diamana shaft. You could reach Cat 1.

Might have a couple of people in mind already

You could fill the gap with a bit of practice, some imagination, ball back in the stance, forward in the stance, open the face, close the face etc etc. You might even enjoy the process.

Vokeys aren't bad

Buying clubs is more fun

 

[huds1475]

Davie La, you're one of the few people from Merseydive for whom there might be hope for yet. Here's a couple of facts...

Last season all I changed in my bag was my putter. (excluding a few 3w experiments)

My handicap went up.

I've just bought an M2, and cleaned up the cash on its first 2 outings, including ripping Conwy a new one a few days ago

Have a long hard think about the above...

Then get on the blower to Coach Wolfie and buy that beautiful 917.

Not only will you be bossing the golf but it's highly likely you'll be beating the wimmin off with sticks.

:thup:

This isn't a bad approach, for 2017 I'm going try a little, experiment a little, and hopefully enjoy a little more. Ok now that ball ace is out the way it's never a case of the tools, always the craftsman - and now I'm back driving it's a case of total faith in my old pro and go find my 2014 swing.

You're probably right Dave, I too have spent most of 2016 chopping and changing between 4 different sets of clubs and not doing myself any favours in the process, recently aquired a set of 'Speedblades' real cheap (I'm talking '100 notes' kinda cheap) and have become quite attached to em so shall be sticking with em throughout 2017, although I will admit I'm gonna take my old clubs out for one last blast early in the new year just to see if/where I have/haven't gained from the TM's, should be interesting...:thup:

Pretty good call. I dropped my 60* out of the bag for the winter as I tend to hit a few fats with it on anything less than perfect tight lies. I use either 52 or 56 for a variety of situations. The 60 might not make it back into the bag come the summer.

Buy new shiney's.... makes you feel good 👍👍👍
